OK This message appears sometimes when closing live.
Instead of closing live brings up this message as it crashes eg the osx dialog appears afterwards explaining that the application crashed and whether to report it to apple.
Weird another file that for some reason is failing to get deleted and causing a problem.
This happens randomly as far as I can tell
Last happened on a set containing 3 audio tracks no instruments
I had opened only one set to work on and like i said when I chose quit I got that message.
I mention it here because it is happening pretty consistently
Unable to delete certain files are my main live 5 problems

I'm on a new dual core machine with Vista using Live 6.0.9 and I am getting this fairly often and have never had it as an error in xp or versions 1, 3, or 6 on xp sr2

I've noticed the same error here with Live 6.0.9 on XP SR2 when closing a set and loading a new one. It doesn't happen often, though.

I went to the directory and on the folder properties went to the security tab and set full permissions for the folder, which allowed ableton to delete the file. Error messages are no longer received now. I forget whether I also deleted the offending file or not. Anyway after that the error message stopped appearing. All this vista lockdown default is a real pain and is causing a lot of fiddly problems.
